Frequently Asked Questions
What preparation should be done before a pool excavation starts?
Before digging, the planned pool area should be clearly marked and cleared of furniture, plants and obstacles. Underground services such as water, gas and electrical lines must be identified to avoid damage. Adequate access for machinery is also important. Preparing the space properly helps ensure a safer, cleaner and more efficient excavation.
Why is accurate shaping important during pool excavation?
Accurate shaping creates a level, supportive base for the pool shell or concrete structure. If the foundation is uneven or loosely formed, it can cause movement, plumbing issues or cracking later. A precise dig helps the pool sit correctly, strengthens the structure and allows builders to complete the installation without time wasting adjustments.
What determines whether a yard is suitable for pool excavation?
A yard is suitable for pool excavation when the ground is stable, accessible for machinery and free from major obstructions like large tree roots, rocks or buried structures. Soil type, slope and drainage also influence suitability, as these factors affect how the pool will sit and how the excavation must be shaped. A site inspection helps confirm what adjustments are needed.
